Preventing disease and injury is at the heart of public health and health systems. Human health can only be protected from risks from a hazardous or contaminated environment through collaboration between different sectors. WHO/Europe's environment and health agenda brings many players together to tackle the central issues with Member States.

This site provides links to activities, reports, news and events, as well as WHO/Europe's contacts and partners that work on health and environment.
